research Phosphodiesterase Inhibitors and Prostaglandin Analogues in Dermatology: A Comprehensive Review
Certain drugs are effective for skin conditions like psoriasis, vitiligo, and hair loss.
research The Genetically Programmed Hair Growth Cycle And Alopecia: What Is There To Know?
The document concludes that hair loss is complex, affects many people, has limited treatments, and requires more research on its causes and psychological impact.
research Impact of One-Week Administration of Dihydrotestosterone in Rat Anterior Pituitary Gland
Dihydrotestosterone changes some hormone-related gene expressions in rat pituitary glands but doesn't affect the estrous cycle.
research Effect of Minoxidil Formulations on Human Scalp Skin Xenotransplants on SCID Mice: A Novel Pre-Clinical In Vivo Assay for Androgenetic Alopecia Research
Minoxidil solution and foam both increase hair growth, but the solution works better than the foam.
research Androgenetic Alopecia: In Vivo Models
Stump-tailed macaque best for researching hair loss causes and treatments.
research Quantitative Models for the Study of Hair Growth In Vivo
The conclusion is that small hair follicles cause baldness in macaques, and treatments like antiandrogens and minoxidil can prevent hair loss and promote regrowth.
research Evaluation of Animal Models Suitable for Hair Research and Regeneration
Animal models, especially mice, are essential for advancing hair loss research and treatment.
research An Appraisal of Laboratory Models of Androgenetic Alopecia: A Systematic Review
Better hair loss models needed for research.
research Treatments for Androgenetic Alopecia and Alopecia Areata
Minoxidil and finasteride treat hair loss; more research needed for other options.
research The Effects of Finasteride on Hair Growth, Hair Cycle Stage, and Serum Testosterone and Dihydrotestosterone in Adult Male and Female Stumptail Macaques
Finasteride increases hair growth, prolongs hair cycle, and lowers dihydrotestosterone levels.
research The Effect of Topical Minoxidil on Hair Follicular Cycles of Rats
Minoxidil speeds up hair growth in rats without prolonging growth phase.
research Mechanism of Action of Herbs and Their Active Constituents Used in Hair Loss Treatment
Some herbs and their components might help treat hair loss by affecting various biological pathways, but more research and regulation are needed.
research Hair Growth Effect of Minoxidil
Minoxidil helps hair grow by improving blood flow and increasing growth factors in hair follicles.
research The Effect of Topical Minoxidil Treatment on Hair Follicular Growth of Neonatal Hairless Descendants of Mexican Hairless Dogs
Minoxidil treatment can stimulate hair growth in hairless puppies if applied early.
research Animal Models of Alopecia
The best animal model for studying male-pattern baldness is the stumptailed macaque, not rats or mice.
research Animal Models for Male Pattern (Androgenetic) Alopecia
The stump-tailed macaque is a good model for studying human hair loss, but it's expensive and hard to find, while rodent models are promising for understanding hair growth and finding new treatments.
research Animal Models of Androgen-Dependent Disorders of the Pilosebaceous Apparatus
Testosterone causes hair loss in AGA mice, which are good for testing baldness treatments, and both minoxidil and cyproterone acetate can prevent this hair loss.
research Hair Loss And Regeneration Performed On Animal Models
Animal models are crucial for learning about hair loss and finding treatments.
research The Penetration Enhancer SEPA Augments Stimulation of Scalp Hair Growth by Topical Minoxidil in the Balding Stumptail Macaque
SEPA™ enhances the effectiveness of minoxidil in stimulating hair growth, working faster and better than Rogaine® TS, with no significant side effects.
research The C3H/HeJ Mouse and DEBR Rat Models for Alopecia Areata: Review of Preclinical Drug Screening Approaches and Results
Both mouse and rat models are effective for testing alopecia areata treatments.
research The Stumptailed Macaque as a Model for Androgenetic Alopecia: Effects of Topical Minoxidil Analyzed by Use of the Folliculogram
The study used monkeys to test a hair loss treatment called minoxidil, which showed positive results.
research The Stumptailed Macaque as a Model for Baldness: Effects of Minoxidil
Minoxidil promotes hair regrowth in early baldness stages and prevents baldness in non-bald scalps.
research Alopecia in Three Macaque Species Housed in a Laboratory Environment
Different monkey species in a lab showed varying levels of hair loss due to factors like type, sex, age, season, and living conditions.
research Action of Topical Minoxidil in the Bald Stump-Tailed Macaque
Minoxidil promotes hair growth but stops working when discontinued.
research Immunocytochemical Localization of Androgen Receptors in the Scalp of the Stumptail Macaque Monkey, a Model of Androgenetic Alopecia
Androgen receptors found in monkey scalps, similar to humans, affect hair growth.
research The Effect of Topical RU58841 (Androgen Receptor Blocker) Combined with Minoxidil on Hair Growth in Macaque Androgenetic Alopecia
Combining RU58841 and minoxidil significantly increases hair growth.
research KF19418, A New Compound for Hair Growth Promotion in Vitro and in Vivo Mouse Models
KF19418 promotes hair growth similarly to minoxidil but is not better in live mice.
research Hair Growth Effects of Oral Administration of Finasteride, a Steroid 5 Alpha-Reductase Inhibitor, Alone and in Combination with Topical Minoxidil in the Balding Stumptail Macaque
Finasteride and minoxidil together promote hair growth better than either alone.
research Inhibition of Hair Growth by Testosterone in the Presence of Dermal Papilla Cells from the Frontal Bald Scalp of the Postpubertal Stumptailed Macaque
Testosterone can slow hair growth in adult monkeys, but a blocker called RU 58841 can counteract this and potentially help hair regrow.
